NGC 6823

[mackiedlm]

My first session out since beginning of June - summer really is not conducive to AP in the West of Ireland. Made extra exciting by being first session with my new ZWO EAF driven by APT which worked perfectly.

So this is NGC 6823 withthe SW 80 ED, ASI 2600mc, L-enhance. Its around 4 hours of 180s subs. processed two ways - normal and HOO, I'm not sure which I prefer. I will try to get some RGB stars for it when the moon is gone.

 

 

C&C very welcome.

Very nice, I prefer the first one

Beautiful image! so contrasty and your post processing is wonderful, very sharp!

Very nice image David, I think I prefer the normal processing. Purely personal preference of course, both are great.

Both look good to me although I do luv a hubble type palette.

very nice, not one I knew about (it doesn't appear as an image in sky safari which is what I use to choose targets). I'll def add to my to do list. Usually prefer hubble palette, but both are very nice.

Thanks Padraic, yes I think I'm coming down on the side of the normal colours myself too.
